HOU WR Nico Collins - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 at Kansas City Chiefs

On the one hand, Nico Collins only had 17 yards on four catches. On the other hand, he had two touchdown receptions. This week, he gets the Chiefs, who rank 19th against opposing wide receivers in fantasy. Last week may have been a bit of an outlier for Collins but it's also a reminder that the Texans offense hasn't been as explosive in recent weeks. Still, Collins gets enough volume to warrant at least WR2 status with WR1 upside.

HOU WR Nico Collins - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 vs. Miami Dolphins

Nico Collins' numbers have gone up in his three games since returning from injury, including Week 13's 119-yard outing against the Jaguars, his most yards since Week 4, also against the Jags. Collins gets the Dolphins this week who allowed both Davante Adams and Garrett Wilson to go over 100 yards receiving last week. Collins is healthy and ready to help make his fantasy owners champions. That road starts Sunday.

HOU WR Nico Collins - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at Jacksonville Jaguars

It seems safe to say Nico Collins is over his hamstring injury. He was targeted nine times, catching five passes for 92 yards and a touchdown. He's gaining momentum at the right time and must be salivating for this week. All Collins did in Week 4 against the Jaguars was catch 12 passes for a mere 151 yards and a touchdown. Collins is an easy lineup decision this week.

HOU WR Nico Collins - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs. Tennessee Titans

Nico Collins returned from a hamstring injury last week and saw seven targets, catching four for 54 yards. Now that he's fully healthy, he should start getting back into the swing of things as one of, if not the favorite target of C.J. Stroud. Despite the poor record, the Titans are pretty good against the pass, though they just placed cornerback L'Jarius Sneed on injured reserve. Collins is still a solid fantasy option this week now that he's back as the WR1 in Houston.

HOU WR Nico Collins - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Dallas Cowboys

Houston fans and fantasy owners alike will be excited to see Nico Collins suit up again. Collins was activated from injured reserve last week but did not play against the Lions. Monday will be his first game since Week 5. Collins was leading the league in receiving when he was injured. Look for Collins and Stroud to pick up right where they left off, especially against a Dallas defense that ranks in the middle of the pack against the pass. Collins should be back in WR1 territory.

HOU WR Nico Collins - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. Detroit Lions

Nico Collins is back. The Texans activated their top wide receiver from injured reserve Saturday and he will play against the Lions. The connection between Collins and C.J. Stroud was extremely strong and should pick up right where it left off. Collins is back being a very solid fantasy option this week.

HOU WR Nico Collins - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Buffalo Bills

Three 100-yard games already for Nico Collins and he has over 100 more yards than the next-closest. Collins also has three straight games with double-digit targets. He's become the clear WR1 for the Texans and that should continue against the Bills. Buffalo has been solid against the pass, but volume has been key for Collins. Start him with confidence,
